COIN CATALOGUES
On the average we issue twelve Coin Catalogues each year,
some of which are usually of sales of important collections.
CATALOGUE SUBSCRIPTIONS
PRE-SALE CATALOGUES, frequently illustrated, are
normally posted to subscribers about three weeks prior to the
date of Sale.
PRICED CATALOGUES (not illustrated) are issued after
each Sale with the prices realised printed in the margin opposite
each Lot, thus giving at a glance a reliable guide to values.
I
HII
The final test of value must always be auction prices rather
than the figures given in books of reference, for changing times
and fashions soon render the latter obsolete and misleading.
The Priced Catalogues are posted to subscribers as soon as
ready, usually about three weeks after the date of Sale.
Subscription Rates
(commencing from \st January)
Pre-Sale Coin Catalogues 10s. Od. per annum
Priced arte SORT
(Pro rata reductions for new subscribers commencing after
Ist January)
All subscriptions expire on 31st December, and renewal
reminders are issued. Catalogues of past Sales cannot be
supplied.
AIR MAIL
To allow subscribers resident outside Europe time to submit
postal bids, Pre-Sale Catalogues will, if desired, be sent by Air
Mail. Air Mail postage is not, however, included in the
Subscription Rate and must be borne by the subscriber. In
such cases an additional £1 should be sent as a deposit and we
_ will advise when this is exhausted.
